Twinkies are not so unique as all that.

Made in America in a non-union factory.
Your tombstone is cute but I gotta disagree with the epitaph. It should say, “Loved by ALL, died after a long battle with self-centered, greedy union bastards.”
The Daddy Longlegs is a nice touch. Bet it liked Twinkies too :)
I cemented my status as a redneck by going to the nearby Hostess Outlet store and waiting in line to get some goodies. The gal in front of me had the last box of Ding Dongs and if I had realized in time she was buying her entire cart load with a food stamp card, I would have grabbed them!
James Alexander Dewar (February 5, 1897 – June 30, 1985) was the inventor of the Twinkie, killer of millions.
I'm going to add some fruit to the cake and juice to the creme.
My kids love Zingers and Twinkies...
I haven’t had a twinkie in at least 40 or 50 years, if then. I think I had ONE. And I haven’t had any Wonderbread since my mother fed it to me when I was a kid.
Still, this is a real shame.
I guess this will have to do until an act of god brings back the originals.
Twinkies are barely sold in the UK and Ireland/Europe.
You usually have to buy them from specialist American food stores here.
I might upset people here, but I have never seen the fuss. Like most Limeys who have tried them, I was seriously underwhelmed. I can eat much better British cakes/snacks every day.
Imagine an era when people were concerned that aluminum pans were sitting idle. Today we could care less that people sit idle all year.
